Add esw_ prefix to the flow attributes attached to offloaded e-switch TC flows. This is a pre-step to add attributes to offloaded NIC TC flows. Also, save one pointer space by using gcc's zero size array, this would be beneficial for environments where 100Ks (or Ms) of flows are offloaded. This patch doesn't change any functionality.

Saeed Mahameed says: ==================== mlx5e-failsafe 27-03-2017 This series provides a fail-safe mechanism to allow safely re-configuring mlx5e netdevice and provides a resiliency against sporadic configuration failures. To enable this we do some refactoring and code reorganizing to allow breaking the drivers open/close flows to stages: open -> activate -> deactivate -> close. In addition we need to allow creating fresh HW ring resources (mlx5e_channels) with their own "new" set of parameters, while keeping the current ones running and active until the new channels are successfully created with the new configuration, and only then we can safly replace (switch) old channels with new ones. For that we introduce mlx5e_channels object and an API to manage it: - channels = open_channels(new_params): open fresh TX/RX channels - activate_channels(channels): redirect traffic to them and attach them to the netdev - deactivate_channes(channels) stop traffic and detach from netdev - close(channels) Free the TX/RX HW resources of those channels With the above strategy it is straightforward to achieve the desired behavior of fail-safe configuration. In pseudo code: make_new_config(new_params) { old_channels = current_active_channels; new_channels = create_channels(new_params); if (!new_channels) return "Failed, but current channels are still active :)" deactivate_channels(old_channels); /* Can't fail */ set_hw_new_state(); /* If needed */ activate_channels(new_channels); /* Can't fail */ close_channels(old_channels); current_active_channels = new_channels; return "SUCCESS"; } At the top of this series, we change the following flows to be fail-safe: ethtool: - ring parameters - coalesce parameters - tx copy break parameters - cqe compressing/moderation mode setting (priv flags) ndos: - tc setup - set features: LRO - change mtu ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Mahesh Bandewar says: ==================== link-status fixes for mii-monitoring The mii monitoring is divided into two phases - inspect and commit. The inspect phase technically should not make any changes to the state and defer it to the commit phase. However detected link state inconsistencies on several machines and discovered that it's the result of some inconsistent update to link states and assumption that you *always* get rtnl-mutex. In reality when trylock() fails to acquire rtnl-mutex, the commit phase is postponed until next mii-mon run. At the next round because of the state change performed in the previous inspect-run, this round does not detect any changes and would skip calling commit phase. This would result in an inconsistent state until next link event happens (if it ever happens). During the the commit phase, it's always assumed that speed and duplex fetch is always successful, but that's always not the case. However the slave state is marked UP irrespective of speed / duplex fetch operation. If the speed / duplex fetch operation results in insane values for either of these two fields, then keeping internal link state UP is not going to provide fruitful results either. Please see into individual patches for more details. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

bond_miimon_commit() marks the link UP after attempting to get the speed and duplex settings for the link. There is a possibility that bond_update_speed_duplex() could fail. This is another place where it could result into an inconsistent bonding link state. With this patch the link will be marked UP only if the speed and duplex values retrieved have sane values and processed further.

bond_update_speed_duplex() retrieves speed and duplex settings. There is a possibility of failure in retrieving these values but caller has to assume it's always successful. This leads to having inconsistent slave link settings. If these (speed, duplex) values cannot be retrieved, then keeping the link UP causes problems. The updated bond_update_speed_duplex() returns 0 on success if it retrieves sane values for speed and duplex. On failure it returns 1 and marks the link down.

The primary issue is that mii-inspect phase updates link-state and expects changes to be committed during the mii-commit phase. After the inspect phase if it fails to acquire rtnl-mutex, the commit phase (bond_mii_commit) doesn't get to run. This partially updated state stays and makes the internal-state inconsistent. e.g. setup bond0 => slaves: eth1, eth2 eth1 goes DOWN -> UP mii_monitor() mii-inspect() bond_set_slave_link_state(eth1, UP, DontNotify) rtnl_trylock() <- fails! Next mii-monitor round eth1: No change mii_monitor() mii-inspect() eth1->link == current-status (ethtool_ops->get_link) no-change-detected End result: eth1: Link = BOND_LINK_UP Speed = 0xfffff [SpeedUnknown] Duplex = 0xff [DuplexUnknown] This doesn't always happen but for some unlucky machines in a large set of machines it creates problems. The fix for this is to avoid making changes during inspect phase and postpone them until acquiring the rtnl-mutex / invoking commit phase.

Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== 40GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2017-03-27 This series contains updates to i40e and i40evf only. Alex updates the driver code so that we can do bulk updates of the page reference count instead of just incrementing it by one reference at a time. Fixed an issue where we were not resetting skb back to NULL when we have freed it. Cleaned up the i40e_process_skb_fields() to align with other Intel drivers. Removed FCoE code, since it is not supported in any of the Fortville/Fortpark hardware, so there is not much point of carrying the code around, especially if it is broken and untested. Harshitha fixes a bug in the driver where the calculation of the RSS size was not taking into account the number of traffic classes enabled. Robert fixes a potential race condition during VF reset by eliminating IOMMU DMAR Faults caused by VF hardware and when the OS initiates a VF reset and before the reset is finished we modify the VF's settings. Bimmy removes a delay that is no longer needed, since it was only needed for preproduction hardware. Colin King fixes null pointer dereference, where VSI was being dereferenced before the VSI NULL check. Jake fixes an issue with the recent addition of the "client code" to the driver, where we attempt to use an uninitialized variable, so correctly initialize the params variable by calling i40e_client_get_params(). v2: dropped patch 5 of the original series from Carolyn since we need more documentation and reason why the added delay, so Carolyn is taking the time to update the patch before we re-submit it for kernel inclusion. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Probably due to some mis-merging fix a bug associated with commits d7ce6422 ("i40e: don't check params until after checking for client instance", 2017-02-09) and 3140aa9a78c9 ("i40e: KISS the client interface", 2017-03-14) The first commit tried to move the initialization of the params structure so that we didn't bother doing this if we didn't have a client interface. You can already see that it looks fishy because of the indentation. The second commit refactors a bunch of the interface, and incorrectly drops the params initialization. I believe what occurred is that internally the two patches were re-ordered, and the merge conflicts as a result were performed incorrectly. Fix the use of an uninitialized variable by correctly initializing the params variable via i40e_client_get_params().

Since FCoE isn't supported by the i40e products there isn't much point in carrying around code that will always evaluate to false. This patch goes through and strips out the code in several spots so that we don't go around carrying variables and/or code that is always going to evaluate to false or 0.

Looking over the code for FCoE it looks like the Rx path has been broken at least since the last major Rx refactor almost a year ago. It seems like FCoE isn't supported for any of the Fortville/Fortpark hardware so there isn't much point in carrying the code around, especially if it is broken and untested.

This is a minor clean-up to make the i40e/i40evf process_skb_fields function look a little more like what we have in igb. The Rx checksum function called out a need for skb->protocol but I can't see where it actually needs it. I am assuming this is something that was likely refactored out some time ago as the Rx checksum code has gone through a few rewrites.

First, this patch eliminates IOMMU DMAR Faults caused by VF hardware. This is done by enabling VF hardware only after VSI resources are freed. Otherwise, hardware could DMA into memory that is (or just has been) being freed. Then, the VF driver is activated only after VSI resources have been reallocated. That's because the VF driver can request resources immediately after it's activated. So they need to be ready at that point. The second race condition happens when the OS initiates a VF reset, and then before it's finished modifies VF's settings by changing its MAC, VLAN ID, bandwidth allocation, anti-spoof checking, etc. These functions needed to be blocked while VF is undergoing reset. Otherwise, they could operate on data structures that had just been freed or not yet fully initialized.

Update the driver code so that we do bulk updates of the page reference count instead of just incrementing it by one reference at a time. The advantage to doing this is that we cut down on atomic operations and this in turn should give us a slight improvement in cycles per packet. In addition if we eventually move this over to using build_skb the gains will be more noticeable. I also found and fixed a store forwarding stall from where we were assigning "*new_buff = *old_buff". By breaking it up into individual copies we can avoid this and as a result the performance is slightly improved.
